Abstract: | The authors examine how design-intensive firms secure returns from their design innovations - also referred to as appropriability. In this study they focus on one barrier to imitation in particular, i.e. the reputation mechanism. The focus of the case analysis was upon Dutch and Italian avant-garde manufacturers operating in the furniture industry. |
